Crazy how wonderfully put together are the different leads, definitely reminds me the genius of Alexi Laiho going to one lead/riff to another very smoothly. The new riff/melody coming after the atmospheric bridge is astonishing. Next level melodic death metal songwriting, congrats again Andy on this fabulous creation you offered us, cheers mate 🤘🏼🖤
Really liking this Andy, great album too. It was a really pleasant find stumbling across this, I had no idea you had a new project. I keep coming back to this one! Great stuff.
Dude, I admire so much what a well rounded and complete musician you are! Masterfull, beautifull, soothing. Love it! Cheers from where the Kraut is Sauer, Luke
Oh damn you make that riff at 0:30 look so easy pfft haha... i was hoping you'd make a video for this song last month because I was learning Avenging the Fallen by ear and I was thinking "yeah you're fucking crazy Andy... but also a bloody genius". Amazing work as always man❤❤❤❤
@@andygillion Speaking of guitar layers, you quad tracked your earlier MPE albums and Neverafter, but double tracked the last MPE album. Have you stayed with double tracking on the more recent albums as well? I've never done quadtracking myself, but I've always wondered about if I should do it :D
@@EsaValkama I've stuck to mainly double-tracking only since my Neverafter record (that one was quad-tracked and everything before it also). I realised that for a lot of my playing style, it doesn't add a great deal more, sometimes even detracts from the nuances and takes up a lot of orchestral real-estate in the mix! But there were a couple of riffs on Exilium that I added another two layers of rhythm guitar to make it hit harder, but this is rare for me now. I think with bigger, sludgier parts it can be effective.
@@andygillion Okay, nice! That's pretty much what I thought. I used to double track even leads back in the day until I saw your studio diary about double tracking the rhythms on Seven and switched to a more normal single tracked lead style (You mentioned nuances there as well I think, and that's the reasoning I used myself when making the lead switch).
What is it with English fellas named Andy and amazing, amazing guitar work? You make me want to play at the same time as you make me want to throw mine in the harbour, lol.
Супер!!! Энди привет, а скажи что за мелодии звучат с 19:25 по 20:00 в видео mors principium est studio diary embers of a dying world 2016, там студийная запись
Now that you've become a very good vocalist, you should consider re-releasing Neverafter including vocals. I'm pretty sure everyone would love it! 🙂 What do you think?
I understand the idea for this and at times I feel the tug towards wanting to do it haha, but really, that album was always supposed to be instrumental, and although I can hear ideas now, I think it tells the story without vocals and adding them would cheapen the topline melodies that are already there
![ANDY GILLION - Exilium (2024) [FULL ALBUM]](/img/n.gif)
It’s time to face what Andy has become 🤟
He’s risen above those who weren’t worthy of his creativity.
This entire album slaps.
Cheers!
High notes in a chorus..man...That takes an effort. Good job! Napalm? Nuclear? Real sht is here. Andy needs a promotion)
Great to see your marriage with the Valkyrie Daemoness guitar is still ongoing, Shredding for life. ❤🎸🥇🏆😁
Just can't put her down!
This song is on my playlist, but not on my list of songs to learn to play because of Holy Sh!t that's insane! You're killing it, album of the year!
Thanks Grayson! Yeah, it is a tad adventurous on the old fretboard, this one!
Imádom a stílusodat, a technikás dallamaidat! Egyedi, pedig sűrű a mezőny.
Killer tune! Greetings from Bolivia 🇧🇴🇧🇴🇧🇴
Awesome to have you here, cheers!

Big praise, thank you and long live Alexi's gift of music
My mind can't connect how absolutely relaxed and fluid that guitar work looks compared to how hard it absolutely rips. I'm not complaining.
Some of those licks are pretty intense to play - definitely not relaxed in my head haha
@andygillion I believe it. That said got damn those riffs and runs just flow like water
upgraded version of Mors Principium Est, when you were in the band! I love it. Your vocals are cool! \m/
Thank you for this Andy! Melodeath album of the year mate😊
Thanks so much!
Great song, Andy. Miss you in MPE, never forget your show in Moscow
Cheers! I had a great time there, good memories!
Hell yeah! \m/
This song, this album absolutely is a killing machine 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
Cheers! Thanks for listening :)
Класс Энди, всё на стиле! Немного не понял симфо-паузы, но потом бас на 2:55 и хук на 3:15-3:45 затащили тему. Успехов!
This is by far my favorite track on the album. So incredible, dude. 🤘
Thank you dude :)
Your guitar chops are amazing, let alone your vocals and composition skills. Incredible stuff man. Cheers from Canada, EH

The best song on the album by far
A lot of people seem to think so! It's funny because I never thought it would be received so well
@ for me it’s the synth and the underlying riff. The whole album is brilliant. You are the new Jari!!!
🤘🤘🤘
Absolutely awesome song again!!! 👍🤘🔥
Thanks Hannu!
@andygillion Youre welcome! 👍

Absolutely outstanding as always Gilly! That open string lick on the high E string is so smooth and tasty. Nice vocals as well. Cheers!
Cheers my dude!
The movement on the guitar is just fuckin insane
It's not an easy one to play!
@@andygillion it is mighty fuckin impressive, I am always blown away
Sun's out guns out. I love that false end and the build up 👌
Fiquei impressionado com o Andy cantando... Ficou fenomenal!
Cheers! :)

AWESOME! I love that riff at 2:56! Sooo awesome!
Thanks Justin!
-How many guitar layers?
-YES!!!!!!
Killer song!!!! Gracias por el video! Keep it up!!!!
Gracias! Lots of layers haha!

Que som incrível, Andy! Parabéns pelo projeto!
Thank you!
Fckin awesome m8
Cheers! :)
Damn at 0:30 I thought you did it by alt picking but no it's full down ahah I don't know what I prefer ahahah
Yeah I have a tendency to downpick anything within reach of downpicking :D
@andygillion Explains why you are so fast at it :D
What is it with English fellas named Andy and amazing, amazing guitar work? You make me want to play at the same time as you make me want to throw mine in the harbour, lol.
Don't do that! Play!!
Are you planning to go to the European's tour?
Question from a fan from Poland 😊
No plans yet, but I'd love to!
@@andygillion I hope someday I will be able to see your talent in reality 😉
Good luck with your business!!
Супер!!! Энди привет, а скажи что за мелодии звучат с 19:25 по 20:00 в видео mors principium est studio diary embers of a dying world 2016, там студийная запись
I've checked it out and I think you mean the parts from the song, "The Ghost". Hope that helps :)
По моему нет, там мелодия классная, как будто начало трека, в этот момент вокалист лежит на диване
@@alex-dima тобі ж сказали, це the ghost. Просто без оснофного рифу
@@alex-dimaOhhh, then that is the riff at 2:25 in "Masquerade"!
Now that you've become a very good vocalist, you should consider re-releasing Neverafter including vocals. I'm pretty sure everyone would love it! 🙂
What do you think?
I understand the idea for this and at times I feel the tug towards wanting to do it haha, but really, that album was always supposed to be instrumental, and although I can hear ideas now, I think it tells the story without vocals and adding them would cheapen the topline melodies that are already there
Этих мелодий вообще нет на альбомах mors principium est
Sylosis
Dude f*ck yes! Didn`t know you can sing too
